COOKED POTATOES

Place the potatoes, garlic, mint sprigs, curry powder and turmeric into a pan with the cold water and salt.

Slowly bring to a simmer and cook for 20–30 minutes, until just tender (depending on size).

When nearly cooked, remove from the heat and leave the potatoes to cool at room temperature in the cooking liquid to absorb more flavour.

Drain well and allow to dry.

Cut the potatoes in half and set aside.

Blend for 2–3 minutes until emulsified.

Slowly add the vegetable oil while whisking continuously.

Add a little water if the mayonnaise becomes too thick.

Finish by mixing in the curry powder and turmeric, then check seasoning.

ASSEMBLY

Place the mayonnaise into a large bowl.

Add the chickpeas, gherkins, coriander, diced green pepper, curry powder, turmeric and seasoning.

Fold in the cooked potatoes gently to avoid breaking them.

Check seasoning and adjust if needed before serving.
